Personal background
I am a web/software developer from all over, I grew up in Indiana, and have since taken up residence in North Carolina, Texas, and finally in Georgia. I was born in 1977 so I am still very young, I hope to accomplish many things in life, and thankfully I am still young enough that it could still all happen.
Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home
I believe that there is life beyond our planet, I am not sure when it will be found other than I am certain it will be decades before the general public is ever made aware of it. I feel the primary reason for that is for many reasons, the biggest one for me is the impact of evidence of extraterrestrial life. I feel that such evidence will collapse society into anarchy, all of society is based on religion, we as humans are not ready to cast aside those religious beliefs. This evidence would deminish the meaning in religion and complete invalidate many of the most popular religions.

I think we should transmit a beacon only if we aren't sacrificing anything else for it. To me it seems like spitting in the wind, could it be seen, yeah sure, but with so many variables what is the likelihood that it would get heard? Now if there was some evidence to point at one point in space than by all means.

I run SETI@home to be a part of something huge. The SETI@home project was quite the pipe dream as it was invisioned and to see it continuing to grow is wonderful.
